So, to continue, she asked me about going to a dance class with her, along with 2 other people (another girl and guy) from work. That was great, had a lot of fun, got to joke around a lot about myself since I suck at dancing, she had fun too. Then, all 4 of us had dinner. The other girl is new too.

After that, I was out of the country for a week due to a business trip. Before I left, we talked, she said she was going hiking, said in a somewhat sad voice she was going by herself. I said that after my trip I could join her, she liked the idea. After I came back, it was easter weekend, she had to meet her parents. So, a few days ago, we talked about hiking, she said yes. We're going hiking this Saturday. She may have been a bit hesitant about going with just me since she said she asked some other people and no one else could make it. But, she is still up for going. We'll be going hiking to NH at Mt. Monadnock, about 1.5 hours from here. So far, I havent shown any interest towards her, might try to push my luck, see how she responds. Its risky, but what the heck, if I dont, I'll be wondering what if.

Ok, I'll satisfy the ATOT rule:

Meredith

She said she's looking to get a job in Australia in February, which is when her next rotation is.

its asking for school password or customer id

That could be a touchy situation, just be careful and it should be alright.

Yeah, just going to try to enjoy things tomorrow and see how it goes from there.

I'm sorry but I wouldn't do it. It's going to be awkward all night long and you'll probably have a crappy time. I've done it before it's never fun. If it's a big group it's fine but you're just a 3rd wheel here now.

I'd be like... you know I'm going to let you two go out. It's not my thing. We'll catch up another time.

Sometimes you got to put your foot down and be a man. She'll probably be dissapointed. But she'll probably respect you to at the same time.

Just wait until they start talking about all this inside stuff and past history and people you dont know. It's going suuuuuck. You'll feel like the loser in the corner. You dont deserve that.

I see your point, and I did mention to her that just the 2 of us could go hiking another time, she said yes to that. I'm just going to treat it as just getting some exercise, gets me out of my place and away which I dont mind.

In general, I try to avoid it, but if I really meshed well with someone, I wouldn't let the coincidence that we work at the same place stop me from pursuing it further.

Just be mature and responsible about the whole thing and you'll be fine...

You're not her boss (or vice versa) right?

Yeah, I definitely plan on being mature and responsible about it. Nope, I'm not her boss. We do work in the same team/group and department.
